Commercial Law

The firm acts in commercial transactions such as the sale or purchase of businesses. We prepare the Agreement for Sale of Business and associated documentation such as Leases and Loan Agreements. We undertake all necessary searches and report on these search results to ensure that the business that is being sold is effectively transferred to the purchaser.

In regards to these transactions, we act for both sellers of a business and purchasers of a business. We liaise with the client’s accountant to ensure that the Agreement for Sale is prepared in a beneficial manner for the client. We also ensure that the client is kept advised as to each step in the process and that any queries are addressed as the matter proceeds.

Again, this is a statewide service and appointments can be arranged for clients to attend a representative of the firm in any of the city centres including Burnie, Devonport, Launceston and Hobart.
